I was really looking forward to the CW SS but I just found out that
I'm going to have to go out of town that weekend. :(

Unless something major happens, I'm planning on working CQWW CW for
sure, perhaps ARRL 160 and Strew Perry if I get a chance to get my
inverted L working on 160 in time, and hopefully NAQP along with a few
others, but those are a little too far out to be sure.

I suppose the best way to put it is: I'll get on all the contests I can. :)
